Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
RANGEFINDING: Preliminary observations showed that one intradermal injection of 0.1 mL of a 25% aqueous dilution induced a moderate skin reaction.
MAIN STUDY INDUCTION EXPOSURE: 10 exposures, 8 animals, 3 times/week for 3 weeks
CHALLENGE EXPOSURE: 1 exposure, 8 animals plus 8 control animals received no induction injection but received the 0.05 mL of the 10% dilution along with the test animals during the challenge exposure.
GLP compliance:
not specified
Type of study:
other: Landsteiner/Draize test
Justification for non-LLNA method:
Guinea pig data were available prior to implementaiton of REACH.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Test samples caused mild to severe reactions upon repeated exposure during induction. Challenge exposure showed no significant difference between test and control animals. Authors conclude that "no sensitization occurred."
Executive summary:

1,3-Propanediol was tested for possible sensitization properties in a Landsteiner/Draize test with guinea pigs. Test samples caused mild to severe reactions upon repeated exposure during induction. Challenge exposure showed no significant difference between test and control animals. Authors conclude that "no sensitization occurred."
